The fact that you feel the need to disparage a man who, as part of a two-man team, charted the course for personal computing in the 1980's, workstation computing and CGI in the 1990's, and then went on to build the world's most valuable consumer electronics company – says more about you than it says about Steve Jobs. You might not like people who care about aesthetics, but I doubt you'd fare particularly well in a comparison test vs. Steve f-ing Jobs. Talk about a lack of perspective!
- BasDirks 15y agoHis comment is not about Steve Jobs. It's about this ridiculous tendency of people to form cults around people.
- rewind 15y agoI don't agree with the comment you're replying to, but if we all had to be equals to the icons we criticize... the online world of commentary, discussion, and blogs would cease to exist. I'm not American, but it would be like not being able to criticize the president without someone saying "see how you'd fare in a comparison against Barack O-f-ing-Bama".
- angryasian 15y agoin all honesty I think wozniak deserves more credit and bill gates did more to get affordable home computers to the mass than jobs did. But I have no doubts Jobs would of been successful regardless.
- sunchild 15y agoThat is extremely debatable.
- angryasian 15y agowhich part is debatable ?
- sunchild 15y agoIf you want to think Woz and Bill Gates did "more" than Steve Jobs, then you are entitled to that view. I don't agree, but I don't care enough to argue my point.
